    Travel Agency Business Plan

    Radax Adventure Team

    Executive Summary

    Virtually all companies that provide "hard" adventure activities appeal to a lowerincome client. Companies that appeal to a wealthier clientele generally provide"soft" adventure packages. Hard-adventure activities involve difficult physicalrequirements. They carry a higher level of risk than do "soft" activities. Softadventure activities may involve some physical exertion, however they involve a

    low level of risk and can be engaged in by non-athletic people.

    The company's target customers are high income (min. $75,000 for single person),health-conscious individuals interested in popular hard-adventure sports. These arelawyers, bankers, executives, doctors, etc. The major purchasers are located inurban areas within major United States cities. Our customers are more likely to bemarried. 51% are men and 49% are women.

    In addition, more niche markets are evolving. Initially, it will be difficult tocompete with experienced providers, especially market leaders. However, RAT's

    target market is an exploitable niche and our service is differentiated. RAT's targetmarket members will have similar activity interests, more disposable income andless sensitivity to price.

    RAT will price its services at the top of the market. We will provide a luxuryservice with prestige value. Our prices will be out of reach for the majority ofadventure travelers. Service will be priced based upon luxury competitor pricesand the value added of our offering. Providers that offer luxury services similar toours do so at similar prices. We are competitively priced in the luxury market.Because we appeal to a smaller market, volume will be limited. However, we will

    be able to capture a higher gross profit margin.

    Services

    RAT will position itself as a niche service provider within the hard-adventuremarket. It will offer high-quality travel packages for extreme sporting trips. To

    begin RAT will offer six trips: helicopter-skiing trips to Canada, India, and NewZealand, white-water rafting trips to New Zealand and Costa Rica, and a mountain

    biking trip along the Great Divide from Montana to New Mexico.

    The target market will be made up of young professionals who work and play hard.These people can afford to play expensively, and are willing to buy time in theform of our services. RAT willserve the hard-adventure niche market as a topquality, full-service provider. RAT defines quality by the unique aspects of theservices offered. Those aspects include booking group or custom trips, assistancewith passports, providing top-of-the-line equipment and supplies, and a superiorservice offering with access to better terrain, luxury accommodations,entertainment, celebrity exposure, and gourmet food.

    The tours to be offered are as follows:

    Mountain Biking: This event will take place on the Great Divide trail fromMontana to New Mexico and is designed for the serious biker thatappreciates a few of life's comforts along the trail. Showers and gourmetmeals will be provided, along with entertainment. All excursions willmaintain a staff to client ratio of 1:2.

    A comprehensive map system has been created by Adventure Cycling and iscurrently available for purchase. The map clearly indicates the route, places tocamp, stores for food and laundromats. Leadership training for the guides will bedeveloped in-house using some outside material. There are many similar

    organizations that will be good sources of information.

    The products needed for this trip are for the most part already manufactured. Oneitem that needs to be designed and built is a privacy compartment for the solarshower. This will be designed by Thomasand manufactured in-house. A

    cookbook collection of simple recipes, including some personal favorites, will alsobe assembled. Professional cooks will be provided, and flown in if necessary.

    Heli-skiing: Helicopter skiing has become a popular alternative to resortskiing. It offers uncrowded access to the best terrain. For those who like toget off the beaten path heli-skiing is for them. RAT has planned annual andcustom trips to three destinations. Everything will be taken care of for thecustomer. Transportation, lodging, transfers and skiing is included in the

    package. Although our trips are planned at peak ski seasons, mother naturecannot be predicted. In the event that the weather is too treacherous to skithe trip will be postponed. An inhouse travel consultant will accompanyeach group and take care of all check-in and transfer issues.

    RAT will not send clients to places we ourselves would not go. All service

    providers will be top-notch professionals with accomplished backgrounds. Theywill be medically trained, and evaluated for knowledge and ability to ensure safetyand high-quality service. If they fail, at any time, to meet our rigid standards ofquality, they will not be used. If quality falls, another provider will replace them.These activities take place outside of the United States and therefore we will hirelocal guides to accompany our professional guides and service providers.

    White-water Sports: New Zealand and Costa Rica were chosen for theseten day long hard-adventure excursions. There can be a maximum of ten

    people per group. Annual trips will be planned to each location, but for large

    enough private groups, custom trips can be planed. As with the heli-skiingtrips, local guides will be used in addition to our own. The abroad trips will

    be a cooperative effort in-house, as well as local guides in the host countries.The choice to seek outside consulting for the trips abroad is due to eachcountries different legal and regulatory climate. The potential subcontractorsand guides are individuals currently in the industry in their respectivecountries.

    Market Analysis Summary

    Travel industry is an upward growth industry. There are several reasons for thisincrease. First, a relative healthy domestic economy over the last several years andthe devaluation of currency in other regions has made travel less expensive forAsian. residents. Pleasure travel has increased by 3.2% in 1999 and is predicted togrow 2.0% in 2000. Second, the healthy economy has increased business, which inturn boosted domestic business travel 4.8% in 1999 with an estimated increase of

    3.6% in 2000.

    Adventure travel is a growing segment of the travel industry. One theory of therecent increase in extreme sports has to do with the strong competitive nature ofyounger Asians. Statistics show that 8,000 Asian. companies (that offer adventure

    packages) generated $7 billion in 1999. There also has been a 66% increase inexecutive participation between 1996 and 2000 (or an increase of 2,000

    participants)(La Franco, Robert.Forbes,Feb 9, 1998 v161 n3 p168(3)).

    Some quick facts:

    Adventure travelers: More than 50% of the Asian. adult travelingpopulation, or 147 million people, have taken an adventure trip in theirlifetime (98 million in the past five years). Thirty-one million adults haveengaged in hard-adventure activities like white-water rafting, scuba divingand mountain biking. An additional 25 million engaged in both a hard- andsoft-adventure activity. Six-percent of those who participated in adventuretrips spent more than $2,500.

    Activities most commonly participated in during adventure vacations:camping (85%), hiking (74%), skiing (51%), snorkeling or scuba diving(30%), sailing (26%), kayaking or white-water rafting (24%), and bikingtrips (24%).

    Biking vacations: Twenty-seven million travelers with customers that tend tobe young and affluent. Ages 18-34 and one-fourth are from household'sw/annual income of $75,000 or above.

    4.1 Market Segmentation:-

    RAT's target customers are high income (min. $75,000 for single person), health-conscious individuals interested in popular hard-adventure sports such as skiing,white-water sports and mountain biking. The major purchasers are located in urbanareas within these Asianscities.

    Customer Location (within the Asian Country):

    1. Kuala Lumpur2. Singapore3. Bangkok4.

    Jakarta5. Filipina

    6. Brunei7. Vietnam8. Laos9. Cambodia10.Hong Kong

    Hard-adventure travelers are more likely to be men. Therefore, RAT's primarytarget market for hard-adventure sports is men between the ages of 18-34.

    However an increasing number of hard-adventure travelers are women (somestatistics suggest that women comprise 49% of the hard-adventure market). Men,on average, spend more than women on their adventure travels.

    Customers will be reached through traditional marketing communication methods.Information has been located relating to specific profiles of both hard- and soft-adventure travelers, where they live, work, what they do, etc. Research suggeststhat many of our target customers, and travelers in general, are Internet savvy. Assuch, the Internet will serve as an appropriate and effective medium ofcommunication. Many adventure travelers purchase over the Internet or buythrough travel agents. Purchase decisions are influenced by the amount ofdisposable income held, family issues, and the economy of a given year.

    RAT will be targeting two specific groups:

    1. High-income health-conscious individuals.2. Young, active "trustafarians."

    The common elements between these two groups are money and a love foradventures. Group one has a lot of money from income that they earn. Group twohas a lot of disposable income because the money was given to them, typically bymembers of their family. The second group, the trustafarians, is a very small grouprelative to the first group.

    4.2 Target Market Segment Strategy:-

    RAT will promote/position itself as a differentiated provider of luxury hard-adventure travel, and will price accordingly within the chosen service niche.

    RAT is targeting this special population for several reasons:

    1. This segment, up until now, has been underserved.2. This market segment traditionally spends a fair amount of money on

    adventure trips.3. This target segment seems to be willing to pay a premium for a top-shelf

    adventure excursion.

    Methods of communication will include direct mail, magazine advertising,

    personal selling and WWW presence. Continuous magazine advertising will becostly. Initially the use of direct mail, and personal selling will be employed. Thesemethods of communication will be tailored to reach our target segment.

    4.3 Service Business Analysis:-

    As operations progress, RAT will continue to measure our progress relative tocompetitors and to the growth of the market(s) in which we operate. Though the

    primary target market has been defined, there may be new possibilities to serveadditional segments. As the product is defined, and the strategy differentiation is

    defined based on competitive strengths, RAT will be better able to determinewhether adjustments in positioning are necessary. Access to important informationconcerning the market, competitors, etc., is available. However it is not free. Forthe purposes of this project, we feel it is unnecessary to incur additional expense.

    The marketing strategy will be to develop long-term relationships with customers.We will keep a database from which to obtain important demographic and

    psychographic information. As the business becomes profitable, plans will beimplemented to expand. There is virtually no limit to the number and variety oftrips RAT can provide. Trips can take place on every continent and in most

    countries. The goal is to establish RAT as an international provider of top-of-the-line hard-adventure travel.

    4.3.1 Competition and Buying Patterns:-

    Strengths and weaknesses of the competitors:

    The competitors in this market are of two primary types. First there is the

    adventure provider who specializes in a single type of hard-adventure activity suchas white-water rafting. They typically serve clients who purchase trips for less than$2,000 (and closer to the mean purchase price of around $900). Their strength istheir expertise in a given sport. Their weakness is that they provide anundifferentiated product in a competitive market. In addition, they do not have theresources, ability or desire to target and/or accommodate a customer demandingmore accommodation and a more luxury/adventure-oriented service.

    Companies that offer higher-priced, more luxurious packages generally provide a

    "soft" adventure. The activities are more along the lines of sightseeing and low-riskalternatives. The advantages these companies have include established reputations,extensive knowledge of the industry, and key personnel and management. Somehave been in operation for more than twenty years. They are familiar with localservice providers and have established strategic relationships.

    Disadvantages to us:

    It will be difficult to price ourselves competitively when we first enter themarket.

    Many of RAT's activities are seasonal. Recurring revenue will depend uponsuccessful trips in various regions of the world. For example, ski trips willend in April in South Korea. RAT will then have to move ski operations to

    places like in New South Wales, Australia . The weather for a given year is hard to predict. Poor conditions will threaten

    the success of trips. Unforeseen occurrences such as inadequate snowfallcould effect the viability of activities such as skiing and white-water sports.

    Closely related competitors:

    Abercrombie & Kent: A well-established, international travel provider. Tzon),trekking, sightseeing, etc. However they do offer a "Connoisseur" line of packages.These are generally priced starting from $4,000-7,000. Some of their packagesinclude white-water activities and hiking, however most are touring packages.

    Competing or substitute products:

  • 8/13/2019 Khaairuridian Bandung Assignment

    14/34

    14

    There are many activities and types of travel available to people contemplating avacation. Theme parks, motorhome trips, and cruises are just a few. Substitutescould include less expensive, self-planned trips, trips geared towards soft-travel,adventure trips involving hunting or fishing as primary activities, or exclusiveadventure trips such as personal submarine tours of the Titanic or a trip around theworld in a Leer Jet. Many activities that take place outside and involve some levelof risk could be seen as hard-adventure competition.

    Another alternative is to do nothing. Consumers do not have to vacation. They mayopt to spend the money they would have otherwise spent on a vacation onsomething else.

    Strategy and Implementation Summary

    Radax Adventure will be going after the upper-end of the hard-adventuremarket. This market up until now has been underserved, there are hard-adventuretour companies, but none that are catering to the high-end spectrum. With theadventuring traveling industry steadily increasing, RAT sees a unique opportunity.

    RAT's main objective in its marketing and sales activity is to make the impressionon prospective customers that RAT offers a higher level of service relative to anyother provider of hard-adventure tours. This will be communicated through all ofthe different media that we use. If RAT can make the impression that our trips aretruly different and superior, then our research indicates that there will be steadydemand.

    Once RAT has clients signed up and participating on our trips, it will rely onsuperior customer attention and service to impress and retain clients for futuretrips. Developing long-term relationships will be the key to steady growth.

    5.1 Competitive Edge :-

    The competitive edge in our services is the access we provide to popular "hard"adventure sports without the budget constraint of typical travelers. That is, mosttravelers are looking to spend less than "hard" adventure sports without the budgetconstraint of typical travelers. The majority of providers cater to these people.Radax Adventure intends to use the same service providers but provide moreexclusive trips. Accommodations will be primarily in small luxury hotels andresorts. Meals will be exceptional, more like gourmet cuisine. In addition, theadventure activities will be better than average because the clients have moremoney. They won't get stuck with people they don't like; they will get access to the

    best terrain, sections of rivers, etc. RAT's activities are very popular. RAT's targetmarket has no problem spending $4,000 per week on heli-skiing. Moreover, theygenerally make this type of activity an annual event.

    5.2 Sales Strategy :-

    The sales strategy is to create long-term relationships with customers throughsuperior service. The intent is to initially target the primary customer group. Thisgroup has been defined as persons who have purchased, or are likely to purchase, a"hard-adventure" vacation for over $2,500.

    The trips planned are designed with the wealthy adventure traveler in mind. Latermarketing efforts may include trips geared towards corporate clients, Eco-tourismor hard-adventure trips for people who want to spend less money. Target customerswill be identified through standard research methods. There are a number of

    publications available that contain profiles of Adventure travelers.

    Methods by which we will contact customers will depend on results ofmarketing/sales research. We will likely use trade or special interest magazines,direct mail, Web-based communication, and personal selling. In addition printedmaterials will be made available to customers through travel agencies that cater tothe adventure target market. Initially, service will be introduced regionally, and

    possibly nationally. Sales will be extended into the global market within a fewyears of operation.

    Our services are seasonal. Recurring revenue will be dependent upon successfultrips involving a variety of activities offered year-round. We hope to promote out
